Claymore ETH v9.0:

- added "-asm" option (AMD cards only) which enables assembler GPU kernels. In this mode some tuning is required even in ETH-only mode, use "-dcri" option or or "+/-" keys in runtime to set best speed.
    Currently only ETH-only and ETH-DCR modes are supported in assembler. Use "-asm 0" if you don't want to use new assembler kernels.
    If ASM mode is enabled, miner must show "GPU #x: algorithm ASM" at startup.
- improved ETH mining speed in ASM mode for some cards, also a bit reduced power usage for some cards (fine-tuning is required via "-dcri" or "+/-" keys in runtime).
    NOTE 1: if GPU throttles, best "-dcri" value is different.
    NOTE 2: speed peak can be rather short, so change "-dcri" value slowly.
- dramatically increased DCR mining speed in assembler mode (up to 70%). Be careful, power usage is higher too.
- added "-gmap" option.
- fixed DCR Nicehash support.
- added "FINE-TUNING" section to Readme file.
- A lot of minor improvements and bug fixes.

I've asked before so thought I'd check again.

Is there support for WIFI connections yet?

ASUS Z270 P
Yesterday it launched 8 cards

you use pcie extend 1x to 3x to get 8 gpu, you did with asus standard bios firmware or you used custum bios ? (cause msi Z170A GAMING PRO require a custum firmware to run 8 gpu)

Thanks for any info.

newest bios
Above 4G Decoding - enable
gen1
disbale sound card

i have 5 "1->3 PCI-E" , maybe trying on holiday 10 GPU on asus z270 P,
and trying 8 GPU on msi b85-43g with disable SATA

Hmm, i tested it on my RX470 and i see performance decreese from 171 to 167 MH
I will do more tests.

OLD CLAYMORE 8.1



NEW CLAYMORE 9


What do you think guys about this ? Is it only numbers and real speed is the same or is it worse speed ?
I Wont implement this new miner until we solve this unknown .


EDIT: OK i see that we need to make some ASM dcri tuning.
But i cant implement this miner - it will cause in default settings lower hash speeds.
Hmmmm. I would need to change everyone config to add -asm 0 to each config. I will think about this tomorrow.

try on win10 - dcri 24
95 core
ETH 167MH + 4000MH dcr

all my hashrate in red card is 910MH

i need new Claymore.

Your GPU#3 seems lower than the rest.....

In the Claymore, thread looks like improvements on RX cards is better in Windows than in Linux.

-asm 0, -ethi 16 and -mode 1, I think will improve your performance.

[fittsy]

IMHO The 70% performance increase in DCR mining is worth it.  I switched my rigs back to Win 10 as soon as it came out for this very reason.

40 dcri is yielding 4900 mh with 6x rx 470 and 5250-5500 mh with 6x rx 480 (Decred)

I'd rather be dual mining any day than putting all my coins in one coin... and with this increased hashrate it's WELL worth it. DCR was already worth it to dual mine as opposed to solo anyway. I'll take the free 70% boost any day.

Just my opinion of course.

[mfsmarques]

win 10
Claymore 8.1: 139MH + 2400 DCR
Claymore 9: 137MH + 4070 DCR
I also need the new version.

can the new claymore v9 be added as a option for us that want to test it on smOS??

[bapicella]

Good evening,
I RMAed my biostart tb85 because I thought it was defective. On simplemining I could not get the card 0 (PCI 16 slot) to run over 8 hash. I tired this with multiple cards so I know those are fine. BUT the new board is now doing the same thing. All other slots are getting 25 hash with no problem and ran for over a week without any errors. With 5 cards it runs fine but as soon as I plug in the X16 slot that 6th card runs awful. Any help would be great!

Settings:
-Stock BIOS
-No overclocks
-Power level 5
Also note:

On simple miner I cant get the core or mem clock on GPU 0 (X16 slot) to go over 300/600 even with stock clock and mem settings in place.

Can you test PCI-E Mode to Auto, gen1, gen2 and see if it will help ?


Also i just tested MSI Z270-A PRO.
It is working under my OS with 6 GPU.
I had to make some adjustments and the newest image (RX) from simplemining.net page is working ok with this board
Just wanted to let you know.

I just tried to change the gens with no luck. I also swapped that riser again just to be sure its not that. I was watching boot closely and notice an error saying "Failed to send pre message 260 ret is 0".

Bump Any help would be great. Went back to 5 cards and running fine but I would like to run the 6th.

[reelen]

Yes can you add Claymore 9.0 as a separate option instead of an upgrade for now?  Would really like to test this.

[fexploit]

Will be any API? i want to build some remote app.

[nerdralph]

I was thinking of trying out smOS on a small rig with a couple Rx 470s and a R9 380.  The web site chart shows the Rx version doesn't work with R9 cards.  AMDGPU-Pro 16.6 drivers work with the R9 and Rx cards, so I wonder if that's just a typo.  So is it worth trying the Rx version even with an R9 card in the rig?

Hi,
I just built a rig and am using an USB stick with simple miner OS. A friend provided me this stick. It booted up perfectly without installing Windows or Linux OS beforehand.

Question:
 I know nothing about Linux etc. So I can't figure out how to access the USB files to change the email from my friend's address to mine. I imagine its in the config.txt file but i have no clue how to find that file.

Any ideas?

Put the USB stick into a windows computer that is already booted up.  It should ask you what to do with the stick. Open it in Windows Explorer. The only file you'll see is the config. Edit it. Save it. Remove USB stick. Follow normal boot process.

OR you can SSH into the rig that is already running with the wrong email address in the config. But that means you need to download some software to SSH and learn a few commands in Linux.

I have a full rig of R9 380 working on SMOS running perfectly.  Just use the R series and you will be fine.

Hello!
Tell me how to install on SSD SMOS next to Win10 so that the multi-boot is preserved.
Thank you in advance

In Linux.... ssh to the rig's IP address... nano is included in the smOS build as one of the text editor. Edit config.txt by typing.... "nano /mnt/user/config.txt".... change email to you own.... ctrl-x to save, YES to confirm and Enter to save file. For me, I usually reboot the rig right after the email change so that I could use another mining program for that email address. So... just type "sudo reboot" and you are done. smOS is very useful and best thing since slice bread in mining.
